Excerpt from Extempore Preaching
The question, of the relative advantages of written or extempore discourses, is of great practical importance to every minister of the gospel. It does not, indeed, rank with matters touching faith and morals; but among the minor considerations affecting the ministerial career, there are few of greater consequence than this.
It is somewhat remarkable that the controversy between these two methods has lasted so long, and is not yet settled. It emerges in the very inception of our Protestant churches.
Hooker, in his Ecclesiastical Polity speaks contemptuously of "Sermons without book; sermons which spend their life in their birth, and may have public audience but once;" while the non-conformists eagerly defended them.
The prejudice of the Scottish Kirk against the use of notes in the pulpit is well known. Still, so exacting are the demands upon the pulpit in Scotland for highly intellectual discourses, that the preachers feel compelled, for the most part, to write their sermons, and at much painful cost commit them to memory.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the age-old debate surrounding the relative merits of written versus extemporaneous preaching. The author delves into the historical roots of the controversy, tracing it back to the early days of Protestant churches and the differing perspectives of figures like Hooker and the non-conformists. The book then examines the evolution of this debate in various denominations, highlighting the contrasting preferences for written sermons in New England and extemporaneous preaching in the Southern Presbyterian, Methodist, and Baptist churches. The author skillfully presents both sides of the argument, exploring the advantages and disadvantages of each approach. He thoughtfully considers the benefits of written sermons, such as their potential for meticulous organization and careful selection of language, while also acknowledging the value of extemporaneous sermons, particularly in their ability to tap into the immediacy and emotional power of spoken word. Throughout the text, the author draws upon the wisdom of classical rhetoricians like Cicero and Quintilian, integrating their insights into a contemporary framework for understanding the dynamics of effective preaching. Ultimately, this book offers a nuanced and insightful perspective on a timeless question that continues to resonate deeply within the world of religious discourse.
